I am not passionate about programming, yet I program computers. I use the tools that programming algorithms provide in order to do the things that I want to do.
Sometimes that is for work. I model some bio-thingy in Matlab, or I use Arduino soft/hardware to generate said data, I do stats automatically, I manage the website and do fun stuff with it, etc.
Sometimes I program 'for fun'. I use Markov and RNN analysis for side projects, I do non-textual analysis on stuff I want to look at, I manage my home via smart-home hardware, I play video-games or sports games and then use various python programs to analyze stuff I want to look at.
I am not passionate about the act of programming anymore than the act of soldering or using a socket wrench. Programming is a method, a tool, that I use for my passions.
